Unclog Basement Drains


It is a fearsome nightmare for the owner to face flooded basement. It is quite expansive to replace damaged floors, ceiling and ruin walls. Certain prevention measures should be taken in order to avoid this terrible scenario. Plumber Hackney mentions basics tips, which should help you in avoiding basement flooding.
The first and initial step is to take a deep and a long breathe because it is a fixable situation. Basement-flooding problems can be fixed even without taking help from a plumber. Wear gloves on both hands, hold a bucket, and remove all the water from the basement. Drain the floor in the last. Most of the times, the basement drains have a clean out port. With the help of the crescent wrench, emancipate the clean out plug. You can also use plumbers’ snake for this purpose. Pour hot water into drain and push the plumbers’ snake in, until you experience resistance. The hot water helps to push away the broken pieces with the help of plumbers’ snake. Make sure to use plumbers’ snake clockwise.
Never use chemical clog removers because they can be proved harmful if we use them too frequently or incorrectly. When you push the plumbers’ snake, you will find resistance. Keep pushing snake until you break through.
Be careful while you are using snake because If you push it multiple times and still find resistance, the blockage of the pipes might be more major than something like clothes or hair. Gradually take out the plumbers’ snake out of the pipes. There is a possibility that, while pulling snake out, waste material might come up. That is why we recommend you to wear latex gloves and use bucket.
